2011 Map of Geridge

About this map

Bayou Meto meanders through this agricultural landscape, defining the character of the terrain alongside the engineered precision of the Big Ditch. This 2011 survey of the Lonoke County area illustrates a region deeply connected to its waterways and local family histories, evident in the distribution of several named burial grounds. Small settlements like Geridge and Brummitt serve as focal points along the highway, while the northern reaches include the community of Hamilton. The map details a sophisticated network of drainage and natural features, including Buffalo Slough, Dennis Slough, and the marshy basin of Anthony Brake. Land use patterns are clearly demarcated across Catalpa Flat, where local roads such as Snake Island Rd and Quack Shack Rd provide access to the various farms and residential pockets that have sustained this community for generations.
